General news
It's the usual chaotic mix, only this time there are things worth mentioning.
I had to do jury duty yesterday, which is why I've been stuck on this awful day schedule. Jury duty is annoying, and extra annoying when we get excused due to some paperwork technicality resulting in us wasting our time there. Not as much a botheration to me, since I don't work, but still a pain. I don't know if they're going to call me back for this particular case when this gets resolved. I hope not.
On the way back I hit the Muleshoe Animal Clinic to pick up Weezer. We had to get an abcess lanced on his ear, but he's nowhere near as bad as Lila. Her abcess is so big and nasty - nearly the size of a quarter, though it's healed up some. It's just this horrid, red seeping nastiness on her shoulder. And, of course, when she gets friendly she has to come at me wound first and try to rub the ick on me. She needs to heal faster.
We caught the Sci Fi Lost Room show this week. It's not bad, though there has to be a next story because they leave a huge end hanging. The only real complaint I have is a continuity error - the comb guy grabs money out of the cash register and picks up a coffee pot to smack some guy to escape, but later claims that you can't move objects while you're in frozen time. I totally buy that Miller was able to use the shovel to block the bullet later on, since he already had it in his hands when he used the comb - but I didn't see Stritzke's hands in the till before he combed his hair.
I did a quick shopping deal today - got me the Aeon Flux box set for me and something to wrap up for the hubby. I'm sure he suspects that's why I went to Clovis. I didn't manage to get away tin free this time, but I was good and only bought 2. I also decided to pick up lunch and bring it by the office today, since I'd be by there around noonish anyway. Long John Silvers almost got the sale today, but they were dumb and not open when I got there, so we went with the KFC instead. Mmmmmm, honey wings. The girls at the office thought it was so cute that we decided to have lunch together.
And now I'm back home, blogging all of this. Wheee...
